‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ Praised By K-12 Teachers

‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ Praised By K-12 Teachers

Chickpeas Preschool teacher Katrina Green says “Drag Queen Story Hour allows preschool children to deepen and complicate their ideas about gender at the exact age when they are often developing rigid ideas about this concept,” according to The Daily Caller News Foundation.

And this is where I get angry. You can tell that Katrina is perfectly aware that she is force-feeding kids Marxist dogma at the very age when they’re most vulnerable. No! Bad Katrina. So let’s take a look at one of the stories these kids are having read to them.

Here’s “Jacob’s New Dress” by Sarah and Ian Hoffman. “Jacob loves playing dress-up, when he can be anything he wants to be,” says the Amazon description. “Some kids at school say he can’t wear “girl” clothes, but Jacob wants to wear a dress to school. Can he convince his parents to let him wear what he wants?”

How about: can he restructure the brains of the rest of society so that they don’t see him as a bit odd? There’s a reason why people used to — I’m not sure if they still do — dress up as the opposite gender for costume parties. When confronted with something unusual, people are going to respond with surprise, skepticism, and even laughter. It’s not because they’re bigots; it’s just because whatever they’re experiencing is out of the norm. I don’t think you can PURGE those natural instincts and do you really want to?
